Biomanufacturing

Building the Next Production System for Molecules

The world does not have a feedstock problem. It has a transformation problem. Many of the molecules modern industry depends on are still too difficult, too inconsistent, or too expensive to manufacture at scale. Enzymit is building a new production system based on AI-designed enzymes and cell-free manufacturing, combining the selectivity of biology with the control of industrial processing. We have proven this first in hyaluronic acid, where molecular precision directly affects product performance and manufacturing value. Hyaluronic acid is the wedge. The broader opportunity is to establish cell-free manufacturing as a foundational production layer for the carbon economy.

SynBioBeta is where the people building with biology meet the people funding, buying, and partnering with them. If you're raising capital, scouting the next wave of AIxBIO companies, or looking for your next technology partner - the people you need are here for three days.

The startups on stage this year are building programmable RNA medicines, virtual cell models, AI-designed enzymes, and proteins that replace sugar - alongside GSK, Sanofi, Novo Nordisk, Eli Lilly, J&J, Mars, Apple, Google, NVIDIA, Unilever, and P&G.

Watching where the partnerships form and which technologies the biggest players are actually evaluating is something you can't get from a report or a webinar. And our 1:1 Partnering App lets you book meetings before you arrive.

“SynBioBeta is a who’s who of AI and biology.
This is where the future is being built, so don't miss it”

Eric Schmidt

Former CEO

"For every single fund at Boom Capital, one of our best companies has come directly from SynBioBeta. I met Mammoth Bio at SynBioBeta, and I met Nabla Bio at SynBioBeta."

Celestine Schnugg

Founder

"Nabla was accelerated into existence because of SynBioBeta. I met Seth Bannon from 50 Years, Cee Cee Schnugg from Boom Capital, and others from Y Combinator there, and those same people seeded Nabla. The vibe, leverage, and energy at SynBioBeta are unreal."

Surge Biswas

Founder

"Our Series A came together because of a little bit of SynBioBeta magic. I’ve been attending for a decade and it’s been inspiring to watch the field evolve from a lot of hopes and dreams to real products and applications."

"I met Algen at SynBioBeta and later invested in the company. It’s exactly the kind of connection that makes the community so valuable."

Bill Tai

Co-founder

"At SynBioBeta I met the team at Biomatter, an AI-driven enzyme design company. The environment made it easy to start a real conversation. That conversation turned into a collaboration to improve one of our enzymes. We're now exploring entirely new performance possibilities together."

Luis Cascao-Pereira

Head of Digital Biology

"Every time I attend SynBioBeta, I walk away with something transformative – a new investor, a fantastic hire, or an idea that changes how we work. It’s a community unlike any other."
